Chapter Ninety-Eight: Post-Match Analysis
After the game, Ye Xuan and Pickled Pepper's outstanding performance was also praised by many media, especially TNT, and they also specially invited Reggie Miller, Isaiah Thomas and Scott Pippen to participate in the show, and talked about all the games of the Eastern and Western finals and the finals together.
Kenny Smith began the show with the opening phrase "The Indiana Pacers got off to a good start in the Eastern Conference Finals, and they will continue to play at home against the Miami Heat the day after tomorrow." Paul George and Ye Xuan are going to be in good shape, and of course Roy Hibbert and George Hill also need to play to their due strength. The Pacers will continue to use their balanced offense and home advantage to take a 2-0 overall lead. And the Heat need LeBron to deliver a better performance, and he, Wade and Bosh will try to lead the team to bounce back and tie the total score to grab home-court advantage. ”
Barkley on the side also answered, "In the first game of the Eastern Conference Finals, the Heat almost suffered a complete defeat on the road, and they have to try to rebound in the second game the day after tomorrow, and everything has to start with LeBron." In our post-game interview, LeBron said, 'I approach every game the same way, try to put pressure on the defense, try to win free throws to help the team win.' I'm going to hit the basket and try to get the ball in, but I'm going to do more. 'Hey, Shaq, do you think it's your dear Heat who have a better chance of winning?' ”
O'Neal said in a serious way: "The Heat need LeBron to play better, not only to have a better individual offensive performance, but also to bring other contributions to the team, such as limiting George's offense." George knows exactly what kind of LeBron will be in Game 2, as the two teams have played each other 15 times in the last two years, and they are a pair of opponents who know each other well. ”
After a pause, O'Neal continued, "But the only variable between the two sides is that amazing Oriental boy, as you can see, he suddenly developed a way to pass through the butterfly step in the Eastern Conference semifinals, at the beginning, his movements were still a little rusty, but from the last game, it seems that he has basically mastered this difficult technique." ”
The smiling assassin on the side heard Ye Xuan talking about it, and quickly expressed his opinion, "Indeed, Ye Xuan's learning ability shocked us all, because in just a few months, he has shown too many new skills, I don't know if he was originally training these skills or only started learning after entering the league, but with such a terrible person to assist Paul George, the Pacers will become the strongest team in the league in less than two years." ”
Scott Pippen on the side did not agree with him: "Ye Xuan does have a very unexpected learning ability, but I don't think he will be like me, peace of mind to assist the boss of the team, you know, when the two leading stars of a team are caught in the battle for the ball, how much will the strength of the team be affected, this Shaq should be deeply aware of this." ”
As soon as O'Neal heard Pippen expose his old background, he immediately retorted, "Scott, you don't understand, Ye is a person with a very strange personality, he may not renew his contract with the Pacers, but he will definitely not destroy the unity of the team, I can see that he still has a lot of respect for Pickled Pepper." So even if they end up disintegrating, I think they're going to win at least one championship this year or next year. ”
Reggie Miller finally spoke at this point: "I asked George privately what he thought of the next game, and George said: 'LeBron is going to take care of everything, and George believes he will play more aggressively with the ball. I think he's going to try to attack more, get more shots, and try to get his teammates into shape. It's going to be a difficult night for me, but that's part of the league. ’”
After a pause, he smiled and said, "You should know that I'm part of the Pacers, I'm there for the rest of my life, and although I didn't get him a championship, I think this year, next year, we have a chance to win the championship." You should also know Ye's origins, his base salary contract next year will allow us to keep the original lineup next year, and in addition to these people now, the growth of Pickle Pepper and Ye will also give them enough strength to dominate the alliance. In addition, I must disclose that although Ye is an oriental face, his way of doing things is very similar to that of Westerners, so he has a good relationship with his teammates. ”
Kenny Smith had to change the conversation back to "Guys, we're really talking about the Eastern Conference Finals, not the future prospects of any particular team. ”
After saying that, he read according to his script: "LeBron's ability is undoubted, the Heat haven't suffered a back-to-back loss in the playoffs since the 2012 Eastern Conference Finals against the Celtics, but they need to play harder tomorrow, and they need more people to support LeBron." Wade played at a high level in Game 1, and he needs to keep that in shape and continue to contribute to the team on the court, and the Heat need him to shine offensively. ”
"Bosh, as the team's other giant, has to find an offensive crosshairs and be able to take advantage of open shots, and the Big Three must play their offensive power. In addition, the Heat also need to get help from role players, such as Chalmers and Allen, who have to play on offense, while Anderson, Haslem and others have to try to limit the Pacers' interior on the inside. ”
Buckley is also the kind of person who is not informal" Mr. Rabbit is angry, let's read the script he gave us. After making a joke, Barkley instantly changed to a serious look.
"For the Pacers, winning the first game has a lot to do with the good performance of other players in the guard line, Hill, Ye Xuan, Watson have all helped the team in the offense, and the game the day after tomorrow is the same, if these backcourt players can continue to contribute to the team in the offense, then the Pacers are expected to win again at home. The Pacers have been trying to grab home-court advantage since the start of the season, and now all they have to do is hold on to each one of their home courts so they can eliminate the Heat. They've taken the first step towards success, and all they need is another win at home."
After speaking, he put on a cynical look again, "Okay, now we can discuss Ye Xuan well." With all due respect, the Pacers were able to sign a person like Ye with a base salary, and it was still two years, which made me feel the luck of the Pacers, but the two-year salary was already a huge insult to Ye, so I don't think he had much chance of renewing his contract with the Pacers. ”
